sob :( more TMI bowel issues

[zns]

Sorry to the toilet issues again.

My bowels have been really agony again today and i er just farted and out shot liquid :cry:Yet there is still constipation, how lovely :cry:

I feel so awful :cry:

 

[BandyEmm]

massive hugs hun, sorry no advice except keep up the fluids or see the gp and see if he/she can help xx

 

[zns]

Thank you, sorry for the info lol x

 

[sugga]

Sorry to here of your problem dear. Im pre op so got it all to come. Hope you get something sorted soon, surely you can take something for it or go visit your doc xx

 

[phatmomma]

Get the doc to give you some senna and movicol, shifted it for me xx

 

[gaelic girl]

What's happening there Zns is your lower bowl is disposing of the excess as it has too but unfortunatly it won't make any difference to the "real" stuff you want rid of! What are you taking at present to help, you may need to look at some one off medication treatment to clear it then regular medication to keep you regular. My mum is being treated like this at the moment and albeit slow she is managing a bit better after her clear out x

 

[zns]

Thanks guys, im taking lactulose, fybogel and senna and glycerol suppositories already. Obviously its working on the new stuff entering the bowels but not the er old stuff. Think I'll have to call the hospital again ugh. Its hideous.

 

[dawny]

sounds like it could be overflow huni, which means that stuff above the problem is leaking around the 'blocked' bit, but only after its been there for a while and has gone liquidy, you really need summat to break up the hard core blocked bit, you need to ring the hospital again. i hope it gets sorted out soon for you hun, big hugs xxx

 

[zns]

Yeah they did say this could happen, so embarassing! I thought I had managed to pass everything that was blocking but obviously not, will ring tomorrow x

 

[dawny]

aw ihope it gets sorted out really soon huni. big hugs xx

 

[emma-louise]

really sorry your having a hard time zns,fingers crossed you get it sorted soon xxx

 

[zns]

Thanks guys, im really fed up of it now hope the hospital will let me having something more helpful this time.

 

[jaynefrances]

have they tried you with movicol ? I got really bad pains when i tried senna and couldn't have the lactulose becuase of the dumping issue, but the movicol worked.
Hope you feel better soon x x

 

[zns]

lactulose isnt a sugar that is metabolised it doesnt cause dumping (broken record). I cant take movicol it makes me sick its foul ick ick ick! Thanks though.

 

[jaynefrances]

didn't know about the lactulose, i was told i couldn't have it ? Worth knowing for the future if i have problems again. Must be frustrating when there's no other meds that you can try. Having had problems with constipation for years due to IBS, i really feel for you, its painful and exhausting xx

 

[zns]

I think some prepartions do have other sugars but lactualose itself is not metabolised and not absorbed in the gut. I would however follow your hospitals advice. Im taking it as directed by the hospital and GP. Plus all the other stuff. Feel like there is a pharmacy in my pouch lol.

[salski]

Oh babycakes! Im sorry your still having issues, but to be fair you need now to take action and get your GP to get a rocket up his ass or the hospital to do something! Grr Im angry for you mate! Please keep putting pressure on them until someone can help you x

 

[Emma Louise]

I know this may sound silly, but i read somewhere that getting down on your hands and knees and sticking your bum out helps with stuff like this. It aparently helps with trapped wind aswell. xxxxxx

 

[salski]

Its true...well sitting on the loo whilst using a little step opens your bowel up better than being sat up straight x

 

[gaelic girl]

You def need to call again hun, you can't go on like that, i saw my mum in so much pain with the same thing. Eventually they gave her an enema(sp) and then movicol. She couldn't take it either in the beginning as it made her sick too but she now manages to drink it with just a small drop of water! I really hope you get this sorted out its been going on so long for you hun, Big hugs x
